ezed　in　between　Thaddeus　and　the　protective　railing　that

snaked　around　the　terrace。　？I？m　so　glad　we　get　to　be　out　and　not　have　to　worry　about　going　over

our　lines　or　what　Ken？s　going　to　yell　at　us　tomorrow。？

？Fucking　tell　me　about　it。？　Thaddeus　lit　a　cigarette；　took　a　quick　drag；　and　then　passed　it　off　to

Serena。

Serena　inhaled　the　slightly　damp　butt？she？d　already　made　out　with　Thaddeus　on　camera；　so　a　bit

of　his　spit　didn？t　bother　her？as　the　waitress　set　down　their　drinks。　Thaddeus　slid　her　cocktail
